Can we just talk for a second about how much I am looking forward to the Hunger Games movie? I feel embarrassed by it. Like admitting I am totally obsessed with Twilight (I’m not. Ok I am kinda am, ugh). WHY do I like all these movies? Is it a series thing? Star wars, Love. Harry Potter, I watch parts of movies at least once a week. Twilight, less so, I went through a phase with that. Why do I feel like people judge me because I love all that crap? Are you secretly judging me? Its ok if you are. I will try not to judge you for judging me. :) Do you ever wish there was like an Eternal Sunshine erase your memory pill you could buy at CVS so you could watch Star Wars and Harry Potter like it was your first time ever? I think about that a lot, and think about how awesome that would be. Please tell me some of you feel the same way as me!
Ok. Chicken Flautas. These make the perfect lunch AND make really good left overs. They are almost as good as cold pizza. I envision these are the perfect after school or after work snack. I hope you will think so too. These Quick & Easy Baked Chicken Flautas are so good!

Yum. These would have been perfect today when I got home from work…maybe next week!
I made these last night for dinner (so easy to make!) and they were amazing. Thank you for posting this recipe. It will be a staple in my home from now on.
sounds yummy! just so you know my husband accuses me of watching all of the teen movies! I love them…got sucked into twilight by reading the books because I wanted to be able to talk to my students aboyt what they were reading:)
I’m equally obsessed with the Hunger Games. I cannot wait! Hope you enjoy the movie! I have a friend who is having a party, making all of the food featured in the books… and having all guests bring a bread that represents their “district”… Philly Soft Pretzels anyone?
Whoa. That sounds amazing!! I hope you’re going. Thats such an awesome idea!!
Wow, these look amazing and pretty easy! Great pix as always.
I 100% agree with you about the Hunger Games, can NOT wait! I don’t know how many times i can re-watch the trailers for the movie. Hope the movis is much better than the Twilght movies…
These look so delicious!
A selective memory wipe pill would be wonderful for reading the HP books again as well as watching the films. Always have envied Hermione’s time-turner to get some extra hours in the day too.
Love the clarity of your images as always.
on a diet to get ready for the summer and I am DYING to try these! thank you thank you thank you!
Delicious! I’ll have to try these and pair them with jalapeno jelly.
I’m totally with you on Hunger Games. I bought tickets yesterday. Although, I was judgmental on Twilight (I still can’t bring myself to read them) I can now relate to the obsession over a book series.
These look utterly delicious…would love some for my lunch!
There is nothing to be embarrassed about! I’m a fellow Twi-Mum and Twilight basically has an underlying love triangle/Romeo & Juliet vibe. Why not like a modern day version of Romeo and Juliet? I still need to watch BD, #1.
I totally went through a Twilight phase, too. It is slightly embarrassing… but they were SO ADDICTING!
These chicken flautas look addicting too! Yum!
These look delicious! I am going to have to try them soon(with veggie chicken, though!)
For the record, I am also very excited about the Hunger Games movie. Aaaand I love Star Wars and Harry Potter. No guilt there, they are amazeballs!!
Deeeeelish!
loving your amazing recipes, awesome blog styling, love of HP and your extreme excitement for the Hunger Games…you get me :)
Gotta try this version sometime, but I will say that nothing could replace the taste of deep fried flautas from Southern California taco stands :).
Totally, totally agree with you!! Fried flautas are unreal!…BUT this is just a healthier, mess free version. You could totally fry these though :)
This is the perfect recipe for my house full of big boys. I need to make things like this to have on hand for them when they get hungry in between meals. These would be just right for that!
nom nom nom. I could have these for lunch right now!
These look dangerously delicious. With Mexican food (especially GOOD Mexican food), I have to stop myself before I eat the whole plate!
xoxo,
mon amy
those look amazing! and totally with you on the Hunger Games :D my husband even surprised me for my birthday with visiting some of the filming locations this weekend.
Yum!
Oh, and I am super excited about the Hunger Games movie too!
These sound like a perfect party food!
I am excited you posted this recipe. But honestly, I think I was more excited to find someone else who is excited about the Hunger Games and also likes Twilight! It kinda made my day :-)
this is getting out of hand. I’ve found myself emailing your most recent recipe EVERY DAY to my husband with a “hey, we should like… totally make this tonight.” & he agrees & it’s always delicious. so much yum!
Drooling! These sound incredible!
